Introduction
The Microsoft Certified Systems Associate (MCSA) and Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) tracks for Windows Server 2003 are the premier certification for computer industry professionals. Covering the core technologies around which Microsoft’s future will be built, the MCSE program is a powerful credential for career advancement.
This book has been developed to give you the critical skills and knowledge that you need to prepare for one of the elective requirements of the MCSE certification program: Implementing and Administering Security in a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network (Exam 70-299).
As security becomes more and more important in today’s network infrastructure, your abilities to design and implement security using Microsoft’s operating systems grow in importance as well. In the future, it may very well be that significant career advancement will be tethered to how well you understand security issues.
The Microsoft Certified Professional Program
Since the inception of its certification program, Microsoft has certified almost 1.5 million people. As the computer network industry grows in both size and complexity, this number is sure to grow—and the need for proven ability will also increase. Companies rely on certifications to verify the skills of prospective employees and contractors.
Microsoft has developed its Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) program to give you credentials that verify your ability to work with Microsoft products effectively and professionally. Obtaining your MCP certification requires that you pass any one Microsoft certification exam. Several levels of certification are available based on specific suites of exams. Depending on your areas of interest or experience, you can obtain any of the following MCP credentials:
Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST) Microsoft’s newest certification track, MCDST, is aimed at an entry-level audience looking to start their IT career by troubleshooting and maintaining client desktops. Students need to take two exams to obtain this certification.
Microsoft Certified System Administrator (MCSA) on Windows Server 2003 The MCSA certification targets system and network administrators with roughly 6 to 12 months of desktop and network administration experience. You must take and pass a total of four exams to obtain your MCSA: three core exams and one elective exam.
Professional, Windows 2000 Server, and Windows Server 2003. You must take and pass seven exams to obtain your MCSE: five core exams, one design exam, and one elective exam. If you are already certified as an MCSE on Windows 2000 and want to earn the MCSE on Windows Server 2003, you should refer to the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcse/windows2003/upgrade.asp) for upgrade exam information.
Microsoft Certified Application Developer (MCAD) The MCAD certification track is designed for application developers and technical consultants who primarily use Microsoft development tools. Currently, you can take exams on Visual Basic .NET or Visual C# .NET. You must take and pass three exams to obtain your MCAD: two core exams and one elective exam.
Microsoft Certified Solution Developer (MCSD) for Microsoft .NET The MCSD certification track is designed for software engineers and developers and technical consultants who primarily use Microsoft development tools. Currently, you can take exams on Visual Basic .NET and Visual C# NET. You must take and pass five exams to obtain your MCSD: four core exams and one elective exam.
Microsoft Certified Database Administrator (MCDBA) on SQL Server 2000 The MCDBA certification track is designed for database administrators, developers, and analysts who work with Microsoft SQL Server. As of this printing, you can take exams on either SQL Server 7 or SQL Server 2000, and on either Windows 2000 Server or Windows Server 2003. You must take and pass four exams to achieve MCDBA status: three core exams and one elective exam.
Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) The MCT certification track is designed for any IT professional who develops and teaches Microsoft-approved courses. To become an MCT, you must first obtain your MCSE, MCSD, or MCDBA. Then you must take a class at one of the Certified Technical Training Centers. You will also be required to prove your instructional ability. You can do this in various ways: by taking a skills-building or train-the-trainer class, by achieving certification as a trainer from any of several vendors, or by becoming a Certified Technical Trainer through CompTIA. Last of all, you need to complete an MCT application.
How Do You Become an MCSA or MCSE on Windows Server 2003?
Attaining any MCP certification has always been a challenge. In the past, students have been able to acquire detailed exam information—even most of the exam questions—from online “brain dumps” and third-party “cram” books or software products. For the new Microsoft exams, this is simply not the case.
Microsoft has taken strong steps to protect the security and integrity of the MCSA and MCSE tracks. Now, prospective students must complete a course of study that develops detailed knowledge about a wide range of topics. It supplies them with the true skills needed, derived from working with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and related software products.
